I felt there wasn’t much salt to the rice and kept adding salt till I felt satisfied. Rice was ready and everyone had to saved their lives first instead of dying from too much salt in the liver. cheesy

Too many I can’t remember them all now .

Lol. hope it wasn't village ppl telling u to add more n more salt den. Lol.

I made jollof rice with brown rice and i made a very big pot for the whole house.
First of all, no one particularly likes brown rice but eat it cos its healthy.

There was just no saving grace for the jollof rice. Will never try it again.

This was an experience with my late dad in the late 80's. My mother travelled to Ibadan from our base in Kano. My sisters wanted to make dinner that evening but my dad want to impress us with bitter leaf soup.

The food was ready but no one was able to eat because my dad did not wash the bitter leaf, he just washed and cook like a normal vegetable.

He was embarrassed and went out to buy us food.

Stop consuming salt please. U are killing your blood vessels

Back then during my NYSC at Calabar, I was cooking Eguisi soup and my neighbor dashed me plenty pumpkin leaf (ugu). I decided to use all the vegetable in order not to waste any because I don't have refrigerator to preserve the vegetable. The Eguisi soup automatically turned to vegetable soup.
Lolss funny

I can't just say what I was thinking that day, Just happened last 2weeks I cook yam without water . After cutting and pilling the yam I wash it and put it in a pot and set it in a stove forgetting to add water till after like 10 to 15 minutes I want to check it, I saw that some part of the yams is black and done for eating

Your liquid soap must be morning fresh�

Our liquid soap was golden yellow, same colour as vegetable oil.
I was gisting and distracted, so I poured more 'oil' in the stew. I noticed the stew was 'foaming', then I realised I used liquid soap for the stew.
It was not funny o

I remember when a friend of mine came to my house and we planed to prepare stew, both of us when to the market to buy all the necessary items including the ones I haven't buy before now. Then I gave her chance to do the needful, at the end I couldn't swallow a spoon of rice because no salt, pepper in fact I wonder if even use the many ingredients we bought. The truth be say I started rebranding after she has gone to save my money.

No, she removed her phone from her handbag and started answering an imaginary call.

She excused herself; telling me that she forgot something important at home.

Mine came in my part 1 when I was in school.
Those days when Mr Chef salt wasnt that popular. We used to cook with the local measured soap.
When I gain admission, I was given the sachet Mr Chef to cook with.

So I cooked concussion rice with mr chef using the same quantity of salt I would have used with the measured one.

Na that dey I realised say that sachet salt get level.

The whole rice was salty and poison at the same time. Guys use me laugh that day. Nobody could eat it.

My roommate and some of her friends went to hire shisha pot from a friend and brought it to my room and we started popping. Everybody was in cloud 9 and I was feeling hungry, so I went to prepare noodles. Common noodles, took almost 1 hour to dry as if it was beans I was cooking. I could even hear the pot making sound like am cooking rice or beans. The noodles turned to something else. We still ate sha. Las Las Highness na bad thing grin cheesy
